ness. This celerity may have some
what Modified Lingg, but his delay
was not the only stumbling-block of
the reds.
Twenty-Five thousand people, the
Anarchist leaders estimated, would be
gathered together in the Haymarket.
This was not an extravagant expecta-
ton, when $4,000 had been so easily
massed near McCormick's. But fear
of further rioting kept pretty much
everybody at home except about 1000
men, nearly all of them unmis-
takably Anarchists. Undoubtedly
the smallness of the crowd made
the Anarchist leaders pause.
"rhe social revolution" backed by
a mob of workmen $4,000 strong
had changed to a prospective fight
between Anarchists alone on one side
and the police in force on the other
1t was evident to the most casual
spectator in the Haymarket that a
hitch existed somewhere, and appar-
emily the meetings managers were all
completely at sea.
The great dim-lighted square was a
decidedly uncanny scene with its
scattered groups of gesticulating,
trampish-looking occupants lining the
sidewalks and pouring in and out of
the rickety surrounding saloons. The
Arbeiter Zeit,ng conference of leaders
had been prolonged one, and when
at last Spies, Parsons, Fielden and the
rest reached the Haymarket square
they seemed
BENT ON A WAITING GAME.
1t will probably never be known
whether the evident hesitancy was
caused by the delay of Lingg's con-
iederates, proposed abandonment of
the outbreak, or the hope that the DO
lice would attack and attempt to dis
perse the dangerous-looking crowd be-
lore the speaking should begin, thus
relieving the leaders from appea,inu
to incite riot.
Finally, an hour and half late.
Spies, Parsons and Fielden addressed
the crowd, in the order named, using
a wagon for their rostrum. The first
two, in comparison with their usual
harangues, were tame as a pair Of
doves. Gradually the crowd thinned
out. No police had interfered, and
the chance the "reds" had waited
months for was nearly gone. The

rlous Trouble.
For some time past gangof tough small
boys, some Of them the children Of re-
spectacle parents, have been causing resi-.
dents OF the Island o good deal Of annoy
ance by their depredations on unprotected
property. Among their exploits was 10
break of the ornamental projections Of
iron fences and the like and sell the plum
der to q junk dealer for old iron. They
also entered the cellar OF an unoccupied
house and cut off all the exposed lead
water pipe, which they chopped
over the creek and sold to Mrs.
Barrett, q junk dealer. It is eaid the
boys and others had a board shanty on the
river bank, Hoored roughly with boards,
all the lumber having been stolen. In
the ground under the floor . cavity had
been dug out as q hiding place. Among
the belongings OF the gang was a revolver
Of large caliber. which ono OF them said
was to 'ahoot Bobby if he comes fooIin'
round here" meaning Officer Bobby Nc
Nichols.
Yesterday "Bobby came fooling
round" and walked two Of the boys over
to the city building. They told all they
knew, and acting on this information two
warrants were sworn out for Mrs. Barrett,
before Squire Davis, charging her with
receiving stolen goods knowing them to
be stolen. She was arraigned on one
charge, and in default OF $500 bail, Squire
Davis aent her to Jail. The other case
will be heard this evening.

stating it mildly. The light Is a pure, sof
white light, nc steady as daylight. Fol

expected success. q Last night'a start wal
only ~ experimental one, tho lights being
turned on merely to regulate them and ar,
range the burners to tho best advantage.
They attracted q great deal Of attention,
and were commended on all sides Is tho
best light, all things considered, ever seen
in Wheeling.
The company hes already put in about
two hundred lights, and expects to add
enough to require the full capacity of its
present dynamo-500 lights. All the
lamps yet put in arc small ones, sixteen
candle power. The company has larger
ones, fifty and one hundred csndle power,
a few, OF which have been contracted for.
In one business house last night three
OF the new lishts were going where for.
merly ten eight.foot gas gets were re.
4uired. It was the general expression OF
all who saw them that the light given by
these three III brighter and moro powerful
than formerly obtained from the ten gao

ditional advantage, u very decided one in
warm weather, Of making no heat.
The introduction of the light is q good
thing for the town. No city amounts to

The Council Committee on Health met
last evening TO take into consideration the
a%dviaability Of ordering the removal Of the
city garbage crematory from its present
site on the hill top. It was decided to re.
port tho whole matter back to Council,
and recommend that that body choose a
special committee 10 select a new location
II it 10 thought expedient to make a
change. Persons living on the hill eide
near the crematory say that DR.. Ulrich
did not make a fair test or he neyer would
have said that the c,ematory was not Of.
iensive. They say it emits q very eicken.
ing odor, which renders the entire neigh.
borhood almost uninhabitable. Mr.. Smith,
the builder and inventor OF the furnace.
says all tho stencil which now arises ia due
to the fact that tho building has not been
completed and the arrangements for
dumping arc therefore imperfect. He
thinks tho odor will not be perceptible
when the building is completed.
The mouth Of Coal run, cas-. OF the CITY.
has been suggested as the most desirable
location Tor the furnace, as there are no
residents in that vicinity, and it is more
accessible and suitable in every way than
the present locality. II located there the
furnace could be reached by an elevated
roadway from which matter to BIO burned
